i want report highlander hero mech heavy metal LRM bug ,
im using artemis launchers , heavy metal is cappable to use 20tube lrm 20 and lrm 10 , not matter if u put lrm 10 or 20 first to your mech , he place them lrm 10 first and then lrm 20 , that makes him to launch lrm 20 2 times per 10lrms , he should launch 30 missles at one time but he fires lrm 10 and then he spread lrm 20 to 2x 10 salvo.

Dude, it's maddening that this is STILL not fixed... but if you want to get around the launcher switching issues, one workaround is to sell ALL of your launchers of each type. Then buy the LRM20 and the LRM10 - and they'll stick in the proper order. No idea how this can still be a problem but it is... and it sucks. It won't work on every mech - but will on that one for sure. I use an LRM20/10 combo on my HM... though I do tend to fire that in chain fire to save ammo ;)

What's happening is that launchers have an invisible "put this on X hardpoint" tag on them- so it's putting your launchers n the wrong places after you save, [i]no matter which way you load them on".

The workaround is to sell all your LRM 10's and 20's (or put them on other 'Mechs), then buy -new- ones and place them appropriately. Only then will they mount the way you want them, as newly bought launchers will just go in the order you'd rationally think they would.

I think they need to implement a system of manual WYSIWYG weapon placement per hardpoint for all mechs in general, that should fix this problem outright and generally make life a lot easier. This may be needed even more for upcoming omnimechs that have these hardpoints in all sorts of oddball places, it seems :)
